Reagans Journey began in an effort to provide
financial assistance to families caring for special
needs children since insurance programs frequently
only cover a portion of the expenses incurred.
Beyond the everyday expenses, many of our chil-
dren require care at specialized facilities that are not
regionally located, spiraling the financial costs be-
yond reach. In response to these needs, Reagans
Journey has established an individualized account
for each child, ensuring that 100% of the donations
made to them are isolated for their use only.
Donations made for general use help underwrite
the cost of programs such as this conference and are
never taken from the individual accounts.
If you would like more information about
Reagans Journey, please visit our website. If you
would like to make a donation, you may do so on the
website or by mailing it to the address below. Please
indicate if it is to be used to sponsor a particular
child.
